Cytus II vs Star Project
Cytus II
Cytus II is the sequel to the highly popular action-rhythm game, Cytus, but it's the fourth music game title from the developer, Rayark Games. Set once again in a futuristic, sci-fi society where a mega virtual world exists in the internet space known as Cytus, a mysterious DJ legend called Æsir emerged. His music sold like hot cakes and people fell madly in love with his work. Like Daft Punk (at least while they are performing), no one has ever seen this DJ's actual face, but one day, he suddenly announced a concert where he purportedly will be showing up in person (digital-wise since it's in Cytus). What will go down at this event? Well, no spoilers - Go play the game and you can eventually piece together the story to find out the ending yourself!That said, the game features the same intuitive gameplay but this time around, the game uses a unique "Active Judgement Line" system that makes the actual scan line to move rather than having the notes move. You'll only tap on the notes when the line reaches them, preferably when it's right in the middle. The game also contains a ton of high-quality music (over 50 of them, in fact) featuring composers from all around the world. The genres of the music vary widely as well, from electronic to rock.
Cytus II is an amazing addition to the Cytus series and is a must-play for fans of the original, but even if you have not played Cytus before, you can still appreciate the brilliance in combining immersive storytelling, excellent music, and an intense tapping-based gameplay.
Star Project
Star Project is an anime-inspired, dating-themed game where you are an entertainment CEO and manager who is trying to save your company. However, everything changed when you stumble upon a charming country boy, named Yoon, who dreams of making it big as an entertainer. Naturally, your instincts kicked in and you start nurturing him into the celebrity you know he could be. Aside from setting him up with gigs, you can even dress him from head to toe, and even engage in a romantic relationship with him.This game may not be exactly the same as the old Star Project which had been shut down, but it is quite similar in its gameplay and storyline... close enough to be a great alternative game for those who had longed for the game to return.
